Nintendo 3DS arriving in cerulean blue and shimmer pink

While all the focus seems to be on the upcoming Nintendo 3DS XL, it looks like the original 3DS has not been forgotten. According to reports online, Nintendo will be pushing out two new color variants of the original 3DS: cerulean blue and shimmer pink. Now if you’re wondering why they would do that when we already have an aqua and pearl pink Nintendo 3DS – these new colors are significantly brighter and more vibrant so there’s no mistaking them for their older counterparts. Other than a new coat of paint, everything else seems to be the same.

The cerulean blue and shimmer pink 3DS is slated to arrive in Hong Kong and Taiwan later this year. No word on whether they will be arriving stateside but I doubt too many people will care, with the 3DS XL just around the corner.
